"Will the Vostok be able to deal with that planetary assault mothership on its own?" Tagate asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"They have to do it." Towin replied, "Besides, they don't fight on their own. They were also assisted by HMS Arabia and more than eighty percent of the fleet's fighter groups. Although the 'Arab' was damaged, it did not completely lose its combat effectiveness after all, and at least a third of its power was retained. Although they could not go to close combat with the Vostok because of the damage to the ship's hull, at least they could use their main guns to hold back fire at targets from a distance. If this is not even possible, then the captain should be removed. ”
"You're still so strict." Colonel Tagate shook his head, looked at his own starship on the other screen, and after destroying the last Scyclic gunship, he turned to deal with the damaged planetary assault mothership, and said, "But fortunately, the shield of target C has been destroyed, and it cannot be restarted in a short time, if the 'Vostok' and the fighter force can seize the opportunity, it is not impossible to solve it alone." ”
After a pause, he said, "It's us, how should we deal with the ring spaceship?" A spaceship with a diameter of five kilometers is probably the only one that only those armed space cities have that scale for the global defense forces. ”
"This thing structure looks fragile, so as long as we can knock off its shield, with a ring-shaped hollow structure like it, no matter how big it is, how long can it hold out in the face of our artillery fire?" Brigadier General Towin said, "The only thing I'm worried about is the firepower of the Ringship. As you can see from the cannon just now, the range of that spacecraft is extremely high, far above our coaxial laser cannon, and its power and range are also very strong. If we want to attack it directly, we will inevitably take a lot of risks and bear a certain amount of losses to achieve our goals. ”
"Besides, there's a planetary assault mothership next to it, right?" Colonel Tagate glanced at the new planetary assault mothership that was not very conspicuous next to the ring ship, it was already very troublesome to fight one before, but now he still has to kill it under the nose of the ring ship, the difficulty can be imagined.
"Targate, how about you go to the 'Dawning' and contain the escorting planetary assault mothership?" Suddenly, Towin said, "I don't want a fly to be messing around while fighting against the Ringship. Fighting alone, our Warcruiser may not be a match for the Planetary Assault Mothership, but I just need you to contain it for a while, and when the Vostok has solved its target, I'll let them help you." ”
"You don't think you'll use the Fight Till Dawn and the Amber against that Ringship, do you?" Targate looked at Towin in surprise, "With all due respect, that's not a target that can be solved by just two battle cruisers, and we can't necessarily kill it with five ships together." After all, we don't really know much about that ship. ”
"I'm not going to rush up and fight it." Towin laughed, "With only two battlecruisers, it's definitely not enough." What do you think I've been doing? ”
"Well, you've always been confident." Targate unbuckled his seatbelt and got up and walked towards the emergency exit of the battle bridge, his electromagnetic boot settling firmly on the deck, "Mr. Obutu, help me prepare a shuttle, I can drive it myself without a driver." ”
"Yes, sir."
When Captain Obtu went to arrange the shuttle, Tagate glanced at Towin again, and said, "How can you help you with your plan?" ”
"It's enough to contain or kill the frigates of the Ring Ship." Towin still smiled, and didn't tell Targate about his plan directly, "We're not defenseless against a big guy like that. ”
"Maybe after this, we can apply to the lieutenant general for a batch of anti-ship missiles with nuclear warheads?" Just as he was about to reach for the hatch, Tagate stopped again and said to Tovin, "If we had a nuclear bomb this time, I'm afraid the battle would have ended a long time ago, right?" ”
"It's also possible that the nuclear bomb was intercepted on the way." Towin replied, "I'm already thinking about whether to free up space for those anti-ship missiles after the war and use them for other purposes." In addition, we have weapons that are more powerful than nuclear warheads. ”
Listening to Towin's answer, Tagate raised his eyebrows, as if he already knew what Towin was going to do next, then he nodded slightly, reached out and opened the hatch, leaving the battle bridge of the "Battle Till Dawn" and heading to the hangar.
Three minutes later, a shuttle that looked similar in shape to the Bull Transport left the hangar of the "Battle to Dawn" and flew at high speed towards the "Dawn", which was turning in the direction of the circular spacecraft.
"Inform the 'Amber' and move closer to the ship." After seeing the shuttle enter the hangar of the "Dawn", Brigadier General Towin gave the order, "Set the course, and we will sail directly to the circular spacecraft." ”
"Sir, the circular spacecraft is about 4,800 kilometers away from the ship." Captain Obutu reported, "We are currently approaching us at a speed of five kilometers per second. ”
"It's less than fifteen minutes to use." After Towin glanced at the time, he picked up the communicator at hand, although his helmet also has a communication function, but the communication equipment on the command seat has a stronger communication ability, whether it is signal quality or communication distance, in convenient circumstances, commanders like to use a more powerful one, "Captain, have you received my documents?" ”
"Of course, sir. I'm all ready for it. A slightly hoarse voice came from the communicator, like the voice of someone who had stayed up all night, "Now I'll give you the control." ”
"Very well, I hope your judgment is correct." After saying this, Brigadier General Towin put down the communicator and looked at the small screen in the command seat in front of him, which showed that a set of data was being uploaded to him.
Then he ordered: "Inform the 'Amber' to enter the third space beam with the main ship, and approach the ring ship in a serpentine maneuver." Remind them not to get hit by the Ringship's weapons. ”
At the same time, the "Vostok" rushed at high speed towards the target C, the damaged and overloaded planetary assault mothership, and there were blue balls of light passing behind them, densely surrounding the planetary assault carrier, which was the damaged "Arab", with the last available engine, slowly adjusting the optimal angle, and constantly firing at the planetary assault mothership with its main guns.
Although it is unlikely that the 30-millimeter railgun and light laser weapons can destroy the giant ship more than 500 meters long, it can at least destroy the remaining weapons and equipment on the surface of the giant ship, and provide some assistance for the attack of the "Vostok".
After the remaining more than 500 anti-ship missiles of various types were intercepted by half of the number, all the rest successfully hit the planetary assault mothership that had lost its shield, and in the blink of an eye, this planetary assault carrier was surrounded by a large number of explosions!
After a few seconds, the flames from the successive explosions disappeared, and the Planetary Assault Mothership reappeared in front of the crew of the Vostok and the pilots of the fighter group in a horrific appearance.
Although it was still not directly destroyed under the attack of more than 200 missiles, this only proved that the Sijing people's spaceship was more clever in terms of structural design, because the planetary assault mothership at this time, the original fishbone-like hull, had completely reached the point of dilapidation.
Not to mention that the blue-purple heterogeneous metallic color of the whole body has been replaced by scorched black, most of the "fish bones" hulls that were originally used to carry carrier-based aircraft have disappeared, and some of the better ones are still connected to the main keel.
The bow of the ship, which originally looked like a centipede's head, also lost its original hideous appearance at this time, most of the two horns were broken, and the main weapon launch system in the middle also became tattered, and there was no longer any energy reaction.
Even the engine area in the tail, the largest part of the hull on the planetary assault mothership, is now lacking everywhere, and the engine nozzle has completely stalled, as if it has completely lost power.
If it weren't for the detection equipment of the "Vostok", it would have been able to detect that there was still an energy reaction on the ship, but I am afraid that this planetary assault mothership would have been no different from the metal garbage floating in space under repeated blows.
But to eliminate the evil, if you kill the enemy, you have to step on two feet again to see if you are dead, so even in the current state, the "Vostok" is close to a distance of 100 kilometers from the planetary assault mothership, and then uses eight combined 24-inch main guns to face this Sijing main battleship, a continuous artillery bombardment, until this Sijing battleship, which is already out of order, is reduced to smaller pieces in the flames that erupt from the inside out.
After destroying the planetary assault mothership, the "Vostok" turned to accelerate to chase the "Dawn" while recovering the fighter group, and they had to assist the "Dawn", which also ran out of anti-ship missiles, to contain the new planetary assault mothership, so that Commodore Towin on the "Fight to Dawn" could safely deal with the ring ship of the Sijing people.
As for the "Arab", having lost most of its engines, they can only sail at a fairly slow speed in the rear, assisting the fleet in conducting long-range alert in the surrounding space area, and can no longer participate in the next battle.
And on the "Dawn", which took the lead, after taking the command seat given by the captain, Colonel Tagate immediately ordered the whole ship to move forward at a high speed. He didn't deliberately wait for the "Vostok" to come and join them, and in the face of the fierce fire of the planetary assault mothership, waiting in place was waiting for death.
However, they did not rush towards the planetary assault mothership in a straight line, after all, the spaceship was still staying by the annular spaceship and did not leave, so if they wanted to contain the planetary assault mothership, they had to lure it away from the annular spaceship first.
Therefore, the "Dawn" is to use a large arc, from the side to avoid the direct course facing the ring spaceship, fly towards the planetary assault mothership, and with the help of the opponent's inconvenience to easily leave the ring spacecraft, and continue to fire at the planetary assault mothership with the main gun, although the distance between the two sides is still far away, the shooting rate of the main gun will not be too high, but that is always a way to attract the attention of the other party, maybe it can also lead the other party away from the ring spacecraft.
On the side of the Sijing people, they naturally also discovered the movements of the human fleet, and the planetary assault mothership immediately released all the bee fighters, except for two hundred left for air defense escort, the remaining six hundred were all dispatched and pounced on the "Dawn".
However, there are only three squadrons and 36 fighters around the "Aurora" that can provide air defense cover, plus its own anti-aircraft firepower and a small number of unmanned interceptors, in the face of such a number of fighter groups, the "Aurora" looks like a moth to a fire.
Realizing that the Sijing people were planning to overwhelm themselves with a large number of fighter jets, Colonel Tagate immediately ordered the main guns to replace the sub-munitions, preparing to start weakening the bee fighters in the distance with a barrage.
After losing dozens of Bee fighters, the group of Bee fighters immediately dispersed, divided into multiple directions, and the planes also distanced themselves from each other, and pounced on the "Dawn" again, so that every sub-mother shell fired by its main gun could not hit a few Bees, and most of the large nets woven by metal balls fell short.
Faced with this situation, Colonel Taguerre did not feel much nervousness, he still gave various orders with a calm and calm expression.
Under his command, the "Aurora" continued to maneuver back and forth in space, not giving the planetary assault mothership or the annular spacecraft a chance to aim and lock. At the same time, the three squadron fighters that were originally guarding the "Dawn" took the initiative to attack and met the group of Sijing Man-Sbee fighters who were rushing towards the battle cruiser all the way.
Seeing the departure of the human escort group, the fighter group in other directions of the Sijing people immediately accelerated towards the "Dawn", intending to take advantage of this opportunity to kill the battle cruiser without fighter escort.
But then, more fighter groups rushed out behind the "Dawn", but it was the carrier-based aircraft of other battle cruisers that caught up. Although it is considered a continuous battle, because the combat time is not too long, the production theory of these fighter groups is whether it is fuel or the mental condition of the pilot, which is still very good. Even in terms of the total number of fighters, it is still not as much as the bee type of the Sijing people, but after all, the bee fighters of the Sijing people belong to the role of cannon fodder, and they will naturally not be the opponents of human fighters in terms of performance.
